this may sound like i'm picking a fight, but why all the damn hype over MKTE?

i realize it's new MK, fair enough...

but this isn't really MK, this is a bastardization of the franchise.

all i can say is that trying to play MK.. ANY MK, with 2 buttons is my personal ninth circle of Hell.

nevermind the graphics loss,
i actually wouldn't mind if the thing was blocky and black&white, so long as the game mechanics are there, and i have 6 buttons....

and of course multiplayergrin

This forum Is for MK lovers and I think I speak for everyone on this board when I say were all hyped about this new MK, even if it is a stopgap between MKDA and MK6.

''this isn't really MK, this is a bastardization of the franchise.'' - I have no clue what you mean by ''bastardization''.

''all i can say is that trying to play MK.. ANY MK, with 2 buttons is my personal ninth circle of Hell.'' - Well then, you must be in great pain all the time, if the fact that there are only two buttons to strike in MKTE is hell for you.

''nevermind the graphics loss,
i actually wouldn't mind if the thing was blocky and black&white, so long as the game mechanics are there, and i have 6 buttons....'' - The game mechanics are there. Do you really suffer so much just by not having two other striking buttons?

''and of course multiplayer'' - There is multiplayer in MKTE. Infact, that's what the whole thing's all about. Tournament mode, co-op tag team mode.


Would you die if I would touch you with a rose? Because that's the impression you're giving.

Yeah except for me, as well.
I think you'd find there are quite a lot of people on this forum not particularly hyped about MK:TE.

Notice why this forum section is probably the least visited.

Bastardization- the offspring you produce when you want to make a lot of money in a hurry and breed your winning franchise with any penis that can mass produce enough of the vile substance to pay the bills...

OHHH look! that fighter is NEW!!!!!

no quality. no substance. just a flashy temporary filler for people who want more fatalities NOW.

and i dont know what passes for game mechanics in your mind, but you can't play MK on 2 buttons... thats why sega made a 6 button controller for genesis in the first place. (they hyped it up with MK's release)

sorry for the long response time on this,
1)ive been busy

2)i dont realy need to argue this, you either get it or you don't.
if you agree with what im saying- good for you:)
if not, you actually only lower my opinon of you when you essentialy say it's same game.

3)im not in any pain at all.. if you read what i wrote, it said that 'trying to play it with 2 buttons'... is Pain.
just like it would pain me to see a loved one living through kidney dialasis, or in an iron lung. it just hurts me to attempt to 'deal with it'

and 4)dude, why do you want to tickle me with a rose?

PS. dont confuse what im saying with an attack on MK. i love the franchise, i trust Ed Boon.
i am simply a purist, and i can wait.

by all means go buy it, it's paying for MK6.

Lol, speaking of Street Fighter, that's the main reason Sega made the 6-button control pad.

MKTE works fine with 2 buttons. It might not be as good as having 4, but it works fine for what it is.

pfffff how can you tell? SF puts out a new version about every 6 seconds... all i know is the ads i saw were about how the pad would deffinitly be released by the time MK came out.

and yes, before you start in on me for this hypocritical comment, i would buy new MK games that often, as long as they are joystick compatible.

luckily, Boon wants us to actually play the game, so they dont come out that fast.

why did you bump a month old thread just to say why you think there needs to be a 6 button controller...?

then cry to mommy. 2 buttons (really 4) is fine with me. Holding the directional pad down and pressing a button results in different moves.

I don't think the game was all that hyped up. I can't find it anywhere in stores. Had to buy it off ebay. But overall... if you found it hyped up, thats because this is an MK board. Even MKSF was hyped on this board when it came out in 2000.

I thought that two buttons sucked, too..until I played it. Try it, honestly. I thought it would suck, but I actually play my portable MK: DA and MK: TE more than the console version. Damn is it fun.

(See--I actually tried to get my point across without insulting anyone. Now, will someone else step up and do the same?)
